I'd like to toss my hat in the ring, although I'm not sure I'll finish before the deadline.

I think I will finish this one! My Male Sim is level 7 or 8 in his fourth and his wife is level 4 in hers, they are both elders but I don't care!  ;D They have no skilling left which is nice an almost retirement!   :D I also have a Bank Holiday this Monday to finish off!

Man, I ran into that career complication, too, where it kept saying one hour till work, then switching to one day . . . really set my male sim back, but luckily my female sim was a little behind, so now they're even . . . not going to be a high scorer, though.

My latest estimate of finishing is now putting me in Last place!  :( My male sim finished Week 12 day 4 and his wife is still at level 5.

Yeah, I started off kind of weakly, then picked up, and then got stuck with the one career that kept moving the next day of work every time Andre was supposed to go in. And Theodora was one promotion away from level ten of her second career and had FOUR days off, so she had to wait around for four days with a full career bar. GRRR!

I am having so much fun playing this challenge - thanks for organising it guys! I'm half way through now and really need to pull my finger out if I'm going to finish on time! Won't be ranking very high by the looks of it - my Sims just aren't being offered many career opportunities! Never mind - it's still fun!

My first challenge! I know I'm starting really late and may not finish but it's worth a try! :)

Thanks Metropolis Man! I got started already; I have two Sims who are brother and sister with different jobs and they're both halfway through finishing those jobs... I've still got a long way to go but doing my best! :)

Metro-

I am not going to be able to finish this challenge, or BBII for that matter.  Good luck to everyone who participates.
